River City Girls Review
Platforms: Playstation 4, Switch, Windows, Xbox One (reviewed) The River City (otherwise known as Kunio-kun) franchise is one that’s been around for over 30 years and has never really had that breakout hit that gets it to stick in the heads of the masses. Its lineage has been a bit confusing. My entry point was […]
Mighty Switch Force! Collection Review
Platforms: Playstation 4, Switch, Windows, and Xbox One (reviewed) I’m not often one for puzzle platformers. In fact, I’ve gotten to the point that I rarely even give them a glance anymore. When I saw that the Mighty Switch Force games were getting another shot at life on current generation consoles, I knew I would […]
A Plague Tale: Innocence Review
Platforms: Playstation 4, Windows, and Xbox One (reviewed) Point-and-click adventure games have faded out of popularity for a good while. As technology improved, the reliance on telling a story through something more akin to “Choose Your Adventure” books fell out of favor and instead moved to attempting to ape movies. As games got closer to […]
Pokémon Platinum Review
Platform: Nintendo DS What’s important when you revisit a ten year old Pokémon game? There have been so many quality-of-life improvements over the years that going back to older games can feel a bit… rough.

Generation Zero Review
Platforms: Playstation 4, Windows, and Xbox One (reviewed) Some games come out and almost seem to scream more than speak right at my interests. When I first heard about Generation Zero, I was thinking I was in for a real treat. A first-person survival shooter with limited resources, tiered loot to find, a robot uprising […]
Blaster Master Zero 2 Review
Platform: Switch Inti Creates, developer of Mega Man and Mega Man-like games, are not-so-good when it comes to first goes around. To me, a lot of the developer’s initial games in a franchise seem more like a proof of concept for an eventual, better sequel. This is fitting for a company that’s made so much […]
Stray Cat Doors Review
Platforms: Switch (reviewed), Android, iOS The Nintendo Switch eShop is packed with games and dozens of new ones release on a weekly basis. This makes it rather hard to not only keep up with all the new content, but also weed out the good from the bad. Every once in a while though, a game […]
Resident Evil 2 Review
Platforms: PlayStation 4 (reviewed), Xbox One, Microsoft Windows It’s been 21 years since Resident Evil 2 released on the original PlayStation and to some, it’s regarded as the pinnacle of the series. Regardless of your feelings on the survival horror classic, it’s safe to say that most people would agree that the Resident Evil franchise […]
